Carbohydrates are your primary source of energy and fuel, and your source to recuperation. Since carbohydrates are our chief source of fuel, this leads to rapid depletion of available and stored carbohydrates (glycogen) and creates a continual craving for this macronutrient. Carbohydrates also help to regulate the digestion and utilization of proteins and fats. When we consume carbohydrates, digestion of carbohydrates begins right away in the mouth and is completed in the small intestine by the amylase enzyme to break those long chains down into glucose, where it can be used as fuel, or stored as glycogen in the liver and muscles for later use.

Insulin is released when we eat to facilitate the uptake of nutrients into the cells. Take for example a bodybuilder eating a large portion of rice before a heavy workout – the goal is for as much of those carbohydrates to be available to fuel lifts as possible. In this way, insulin is considered something of an anabolic hormone, hence its use in bodybuilding, as it draws nutrients into cells. So what if we could find a way to mimic insulin, making the body more efficient at disposing of glucose into the bloodstream? Well, that's exactly what GlucoVantage by Alpha Lion does!

Alpha Lion Gains Candy GlucoVantage

GlucoVantage assists in shuttling glucose into the muscle cells for storage as glycogen so that less insulin needs to be released after consuming a high carbohydrate meal. More muscle glycogen = bigger pumps, better nutrient delivery, increased performance, and the potential to build more muscle. The times that our body can deal with carbohydrates best are; during workout, post workout and when at very low levels of body fat. Outside of this, sometimes we could benefit from a helping hand. GlucoVantage can be incredibly useful when bulking. Bodybuilders or strength athletes who have been pushing food, especially carbs, up for an extended period of time may find that their fasted blood glucose begins to rise. At this point, insulin sensitivity is decreased and the hefty meals may begin making the individual feel sluggish. A GDA will ensure that those high carb meals are put to use to extend the gaining period. GlucoVantage can even be implemented when consuming a cheat meal or re-feeds to prevent unwanted blood sugar spikes, shuttle glycogen into the muscle to ‘put the carbs to use’ in subsequent training sessions and limiting the potential for acute fat gain.

Directions: As a dietary supplement, take 1 capsule 30 minutes before your biggest carb dense meal up to 3 times per day. Do not exceed more than 6 capsules in a 24 hour time period. You may stack Gains Candy GlucoVantage with other Alpha Lion products as suggested below.

For maximum fat loss: Take as suggested above and stack with 2 capsules of Gains Candy MitoBurn and 2 capsules of Gains Candy CaloriBurn per day to help increase thermogenesis and maximize fat loss.

For muscle building: Take as suggested above and stack with Lions Blood to help increase muscle protein synthesis and lower myostatin levels for maximum muscle building.

For increased pump: Consume a high carb meal 1 hour before training and take 1-2 capsules of Gains Candy GlucoVantage 30 minutes before this meal. Stack with SUPERHUMAN or KMODO PUMP pre-workouts to maximize nutrient delivery and experience skin-tearing pumps.

For cheat meal damage control: You may increase to 2 capsules 30 minutes before a cheat meal or any high carb meal. This will help to super soak your muscles with stored glycogen rather than being stored as body fat.
